How much could a cloud possibly weigh? I mean. it's just air, right?

A typical cumulus cloud weighs approximately 1.1 million pounds, which is equivalent to about 500,000 kilograms. This weight is due to the water content within the cloud, with an estimated 0.5 grams of water per cubic meter. Despite their considerable weight, clouds float because they are less dense than the surrounding air. 
Cumulus clouds are puffy, white or light gray clouds with flat bases, often described as looking like cotton balls. They have sharp outlines and can resemble cauliflower. These are low-level clouds, generally found below 2,000 meters (6,600 feet). These clouds form through the process of rising warm air or thermals.
